Did you know October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month? What better time to Start Talking about healthy relationships and dating abuse?

Thanks to the generous support of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans of Illionois, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas, loveisrespect has created the innovative Start Talking campaign, providing free resources to schools, service providers and health care professionals in those four states. Joining the campaign is as easy as signing up for the free toolkit! After that, we encourage you to apply to be part of our all-expenses-paid Institutes. There, you’ll get intensive training on how to become the ultimate advocate against abuse.

Not in Illinois, New Mexico, Oklahoma or Texas? You can still get involved this October. Tell us how You See DV and be part of the national conversation around this issue.
